1. FOB shipping point & FOB destination? Search the details for INCOTERMS 2000, just try to search in YAHOO search engine. Freight terms usually focus on who will be responsible for the freight charges settlement, whether the consignees' or consignor, at the destination or the shipping point.
2. Freight terms basicly is "who pays for shipping" If it is paid for by the shipper, do you have to send the shipper money and he pays UPS and then ships it or is it shipped C.O.D. which is an abbreviation for Collect On Delivery. That means he ships it to you and you have to pay shipping on your end. Shipping point is the location that it is shipped from or to.
